Chapter 21 They Might Believe We Are Jealous

Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned to see Elena gracefully walking out of the room. She was wearing a flowing ivory gown that trailed behind her, and her assistant was constantly adjusting it.

The neckline was shallow and revealed a lot of skin.

Julia rolled her eyes and exclaimed, “Oh my goodness! Everyone knows we’re just going out to eat. But anyone who doesn’t know would think she’s on the red carpet!”

Julia snorted dismissively. “No way. Who is going to notice us now?”

Others were oblivious to their chat because everyone focused on Elena.

“Of course, you can. There’s no problem at all,” Elena said as she approached Mr. Smith’s luxurious car. “Ms. Lawrence, just don’t walk with me looking like that. If the paparazzi catch us together, they’ll assume I’m all about style and no substance.”

“Who cares about walking with you!”

Julia grumbled and grabbed Claire’s hand. Then, they walked towards their

The dinner was arranged at Golden Splendor, Silverton’s most luxurious and expensive restaurant.

More than having money was needed to get anyone a seat here. To dine and entertain here, someone must make a reservation a week in advance and be a member who has paid a membership fee of five hundred thousand dollars.

When the film crew arrived, the manager greeted them at the entrance.

“Is this the crew of ‘The Twenty-Fifth Hour”?”

Smith stood in the foreground and nodded graciously. “Yes,
